John Edwards for President
The 2004 Presidential Race Begins!

And the last one...I promise...9% for Edwards in the Zogby America poll. Just behind Lieberman (11%) and neck and neck with Kerry (9%). Gephardt (8%) and Daschle (now out...7%) just behind.

Against these three opponents, Edwards has a great opportunity. I can't wait for him to get on the trail and in the debates -- it's only up from here.

I turned back on comments. I'd rather have them than a slightly better looking template. I appreciate all the comments and emails I've received. Even the anti-edwards ones have all been printable and some very well argued (for example, James on 12/20 on the bottom post). I hope you'll continue to read, regardless of your perspectives.

Oliver Willis is producing a quality John Edwards blog (and links to mine...thanks for the email). Check it out -- it's certainly updated more frequently than mine and is chock full of good information. And the official site is looking very nice post-announcement. Coming soon I'm hoping to have a review of who owns the various johnedwards domain names (BTW, this site is accessible as presidentjohnedwards.org and presidentedwards.org) for general information. Unsurprisingly, I was beaten to almost all of the best ones (but at $8/pop why not pick up a few?), though frankly I find a .org more appropriate than a .com.

Well, I'm back in town. And the race is starting to heat up. Good coverage over the holidays of John Edwards in the NYT and all the national media as surprise, surprise, he decided to run for President. I thought the coverage was pretty favorable (and hot off the presses is that Daschle won't run...in certain respects a negative since Edwards contrasts nicely with that portion of the party so it would be good to split those votes). For Edwards to win the nomination, he likely needs a wide open race since his numbers are low currently. For example, running against Gore in 2000 would have been suicide (ignoring the fact that there was very little political experience). Yet this is neither surprising nor a bad thing.
